Dear Dish-It: No Money for Mother’s Day

I love my mom with all my heart but I have no money so I can’t get her a really nice gift for Mother’s Day. I feel really bad; what can I do?

Mother's Day

Dear BK,

Sounds like you and your mom have a wonderful relationship – I’m sure that as long as she knows that you love and support her, she won’t care whether or not you can afford to buy her a fancy present for Mother’s Day.

Fab & Free

The best gift – your love – doesn’t cost anything. There are lots of other ways to show your mom how much you care without having to spend a cent:

Make dinner for her one day – or even just a sweet treat for dessert!

Offer to babysit your little brother or sister so that she can have the afternoon off.

Umm...If she is the kind of girl that likes to talk a lot and tells everybody what is going on then the whole school will know when she finds out you like her. I say who cares if the whole school knows you like her. I like it if a boy tells me he likes me and ask me out. I don't like boys trying to be sneaky coz they stink at it and end up looking stupid. If you want to be sneaky about it you can ask her if she can help you with your homework or ask her if she wants to hang with you and your friends at the mall or you can look at her and smile and see if she smiles back at you.

well, as a girl i know that i like it when boys are up front with there feelings. girls like to know that they can trust you to tell them the truth no matter who's watching you. that may show that you really do like her. if you need to do it privately, then mabey if you do any after school activities and she does then ask her then.
